HOUSTONC-Innovation LLC (C-I) has installed several stem clamps beneath BP’s Mad Dog spar in the Gulf of Mexico, using its subsea inspection, maintenance and repair ROV MV Dove.

Throughout the planning process, several risks were mitigated for C-I and BP assets by modifying the ROV. This included armoring with Lexan polycarbonate, design of new manipulator mounting subframes to extend the reach of the manipulators by 12 in. and installation of enhanced manipulator controls systems.

The project was completed 10 days ahead of BP’s schedule.
